but I don't care because I DIDN'T GET WHAT I WANTED and that is all that matters.
But isn't that the only thing that counts here? What oneself want to hear
One can only be *that* happy on behalf of those that still haven't heard Hampton via boot.
quite true. and we all know that being "happy that" really sucks compared to being just plain "happy." thanks for pointing out that very important distinction. i might add that the same holds true for being "sad that" and other similar emotions that aren't felt on a more inner-personal level.

Wow. Um...no. Your incredibly simplistic worldview doesn't pertain to everyone else. Thankfully.
Nonetheless, an in-depth critique of Hampton '81 by someone with your impressive knowledge of the band would be greatly appreciated. Merely bashing the existence of the release itself, however, is not.

Boring choice imo, as this tour has been amply documented in official releases already. Thumbs down.
Amply?
A 45 minute heavily edited album and a movie where the songs have been butchered to f**k to the extent where one of the few watchable moments of the entire 90 minutes is a helicopter shot of the stadium.
Compare that to a full-length remixed show clocking in at two and a quarter hours. All for the price of a half decent coffee.
For the first time ever, the Stones have sanctioned the release of a unedited show from start to finish.
That'll do me.

That period has been accessible since 1981....to anyone who gives a shit.
I'm not spending a lot of time thinking about it, Ill just wait for the next release...so what's with all the bitching about bitching? Not you Gazza, but some here seem so offended when some of us express disappointment over anything.
What is this? The Kennedy Family forum and we're not supposed to talk about Mary Jo, drugs, sexual indiscretions?
Jeez...bunch of nilly-willies.

...Because I'm totally confused why you have gaps and I have none. And I'm not deaf, and I've listened as hard as I can, and mine just plays seamlessly. And I wouldn't want gaps either.
Don't feel like backtracking in the thread but I'll take a guess - like me, he probably got Brussels as mp3. You probably got it as flac or wave. And they likely converted their flac to mp3 with gaps - so yours would not have them and we would.

Yeah. I believe yours is seamless...but I don't understand why.
I downloaded both ways just to check. Testing it in TLH it says that 34 frames have been added to each track. Convert to Wav...fix sector boundary errors and fix N Sector by 'shift forward' and it still has pops. The only thing I haven't done is play it on iTunes as I don't have iTunes. Also interesting is this...in the Google Music player online where I purchased it, HTW is 2:43 and after download its 2:42...plus the gaps are bigger in their player
I don't know whats going on.
I have lost interest in trying to fix it anymore.
and now the positive note:
What a great mix!

I just listened to it on Google Music, and yeah there are gaps there. Maybe you should try using iTunes, maybe the reason mine has no gaps is because iTunes does that "gapless playback" thing or whatever. I don't know if that's why, but no gaps there when I listen. And it doesn't have them on the CD I burned with iTunes.
